Make a narrated explainer video (MP4) about a paper, method or concept, animated with ManimGX and voiced locally by LFM3-Audio, optionally tied to the user's own project. Use whenever the user asks for an animation, an animated explainer, or an explainer video.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Narrated explainer videos

The reference is `examples/sec/` in this skill: a 3Blue1Brown-style explainer of the
Self-Evolving Curriculum paper. Match it: dark background, one idea per beat,
every animation timed to the words that describe it, the real math built up one piece at a time,
and, when the user has a project the idea relates to, a closing part about how it applies there.

Tools (see README.md for setup; if one is missing, tell the user how to install it):
- `manimgx` (`uv tool install manimgx`; CLI, Manim CE API, `import manimgx as m`): `inspect` for storyboard and layout report, `render` for the MP4 and its `.srt`.
- LFM3-Audio-2B GGUF for TTS and ASR, in `$LFM_AUDIO_CKPT` (default
  `~/.lmstudio/models/LiquidAI/LFM3-Audio-2B-GGUF/`), run with llama.cpp's `llama-tts` and
  `llama-mtmd-cli` from `runner/b11985/` there. `scripts/fetch_model.sh` downloads both.
- `ffmpeg`/`ffprobe`.
- `scripts/hardware.py` (what this machine can do: GPU or CPU rendering, RAM, cores, missing tools) and
  `scripts/render.py` (renders at the best format that finishes in time, with progress).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add manoletre/explainer-video/explainer-video@sha256:e5745dd3131b3888

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261106.f3d41b0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
